This month Carhartt WIP Radio welcomes @yyyooouuuttthhh, the Manchester-based label founded in 2017 by Andrew Lyster, aka DJ Lyster. Eclectic in style, the label’s output has spanned dubstep, electro, hip-hop, IDM, techno, wave and other experimental abstractions. The result is a captivating and thoroughly contemporary sound, with an equally compelling visual identity, likely owing to Lyster’s own design background. 

The eclecticism of YOUTH is not limited to its sound, however, with an artist roster that includes local acts such as FUMU and @sockethead, as well as the visual artist and producer @dijit from Egypt, enigmatic producer @ssiege, and @hoshina Anniversary from Tokyo, Japan. Additionally, the label has released work by UK producer @joy-orbison, via his Sin Falta pseudonym.

For Carhartt WIP Radio DJ Lyster prepared a trip through the nascent archives of YOUTH, to “hopefully give an idea of the label's past and an idea of where it’s going.” 

We also sat down with Lyster to discuss the YOUTH’s origins, curating an album from a body of tracks, and the enduring importance of record labels in a digital era.
